HCG Diet Tasty 500-Calorie Recipes

Before embarking on any of these recipes, ensure that you trim all traces of fat off the meat and weigh it raw.

Remember to check Dr Simeons’* 500-calorie diet for the maximum allowances of individual foodstuffs per day. For instance, the juice of only one lemon per day is permitted, so a tablespoon of lemon juice is half the day’s allowance.

Tip:

For convenience, purchase a kilogram of raw chicken breasts, grill them, dice or shred them, then package them up into 10 100-gram lots, bag and label them, and freeze.
